The definition of a ‘film opening’ was firstly defined using some research gathered - A film
opening is what reveals an insight of the actual film. It generally introduces the protagonists
of the film as well as the setting. Film openings tend to give away the genre of the film
through its presentation. It gives the film an opportunity to make a first impression on its
audience.

a film opening. This consisted of the introduction of the main characters, the opening
credits, the font and style of the text, the soundtrack or score and finally, the text
orientation.
After that, I presented some information that gave an insight of the website ‘Art of The
Title’; http://www.artofthetitle.com/; research was conducted from this specific website in
order to explain the effect of film titles - Art of the Title provides a resource of title
sequence designs, spanning the film, television, conference, and video game industries. It
features title designs from countries around the world.
I gave a brief definition for the ‘romance’ genre - All romance films have a central love story
and an emotionally optimistic ending. However, romance novels may have any tone or style,
be set in any place or time, and have varying levels of sensuality; ranging from sweet to
extremely hot.
